The march was organized by `Hart boven Hard’ (Heart Over Hard).
During the demonstration, activists spoke out against budget cuts and unfair taxation policies.
“Our society has many challenges, including economy, ecology, poverty, inequality, diversity and urban development,” activist Wouter Hillaert told VTM News. “If we want to find an answer, we need to switch to a different tune than the current policy.”
People carried banners reading `Yes there is an alternative.`
Another protest is scheduled to take place in Brussels on Monday, with local labor unions organizing a wave of strikes. At least 7,000 people are expected to take part.
